This is thread to discuss that one game you played that you never see talked about or even acknowledged.
Games like pic related or Snood.
Please don't talk about Snood, fuck Snood. Snood can go to hell

Fucking great ass game that NEVER gets talked about much here or anywhere.

Fuck me.
New Meteos and Lumines on the 3DS would be fucking amazing though. Maybe for the NX since it's right around the corner, so to speak.
lmao even my mom had meteos
get more obscure anon
>>343995575
I played this shit out of this on my DS. I have it in my 3DS carrying case right now
>>343996698

WOOOOWWWW
hey guys

FUCK SNOOD AND FUCK YOU

Sure, bro.

If we're lucky someone more trustworthy will get the rights; and then we get the Meteos game we deserve.
I would kill for a sequel
Oh shit, now I remember Snood. Whatever the fuck those things freaked me out at a kid.
What the fuck is Snood?

>blocks come in exclusively vertically
>you can only move blocks vertically

Who the fuck thought that was a good idea

All you need to know is that it's a blight on God's green earth
Let me clarify here.
I'm talking about after both 2020 was announced and the period passed when we thought we'd get it brought over (roughly around when EO3 was announced).Before that point it had quite a lot of talk and hype (even my own input). Then it just kinda fell off the map.
After playing it, I can see why (not very casual-friendly for one and there are a number of odd issues (such as some classes not having a way to use their skills from the start due to the first town not selling everything necessary)), but it's still an alright little game. It could have really, REALLY benefited from EOU's master-category unlock system (i.e. put points in the main tree and most skills in it unlock for "free") and having multi points needed to a single point sucks ass (such as Save the Queen needing two (or three) points just for the bare minimum). Still I gotta say, I like some aspects of it that hadn't made it into EO or were done here first.
I wish Mota had gotten more work in vidya (except that I think he worked on that newest genkai touki game, which, eh, it's something). I really like his style. I dislike how no other 7thDragon games are like this one either because it really does have a good atmosphere, which although cliche, is still a bit different from your bogstandard swords and sorcery world.
I think 2020 and the 3DS game are alright in a different sort of way, but: one) limiting parties to 3 sucks ass, 2) animations take FAR too fucking long in the 3DS game (not sure about PSP, but I'm sure it is similar) iii) the art design and atmosphere took a huge fucking nosedive
The class system is pretty different, arguably in a good way (hacker is a neat twist on debuffs, and duelist is a trippy version of the bogstandard mage), but I hate how you lose so much team symmetry by not having a 4th member.
I imagine people will talk about the 3DS game, at least for a while.

>or set up even slightly intricate combos
Are you fucking retarded?Try moving blocks of the same color in different columns together in order to create bigger combos.
Also moving blocks between columns would've broken the game. The Disney version let you do that and it was way easier because of it.
>>344000496
Sakurai, still love the game
>>344000496
>or set up even slightly intricate combos
Combos are easy to set up, you connect falling "islands" with blocks on the ground. You're an idiot.
>>343999926
Never ever, laddy (in english, that is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LostMagic)
Damn shame. Never played it, but heard mostly good things. Can't imagine what multiplayer was like.
>>343995575
Apparently Puzzle Bobble is obscure since everyone thought Snood was the second fucking coming of Christ, like it was some novel new game concept. At least when Popcap ripped it off they made the levels more dynamic (Zuma).
>>344000132
>Snood and meteos were my first NDS games
Christ what the fuck was wrong with me
>>344000769
>Combos are easy to set up, you connect falling "islands" with blocks on the ground. You're an idiot.
This. I pretty much sucked at the game but even I knew that. There are multiple ways to create "intricate combos" and the game can get pretty damn crazy if you're good.
>deliberately waiting to connect a series of the same color of block until you get more of that block so that you can get a bigger lift off
>lifting off islands from the ground so they can join in with falling blocks
>doing whatever you can to make bigger chains of blocks exit the screen
Meteos was fun as fuck. I should go back to it.
>>343995575
Best game on Xbox in my opinion. Incredibly satisfying to master.
I played meteos when the servers for planet puzzle league died
if there's a trick to it, I don't get it at all
I can go extremely fast in tetris attack and puzzle fighter, but this shit? makes no sense.
>>344001315
I only recall fapping to that picture years ago.
>>343995575
Meteos is great
if only Meteos Wars was half as good
Anybody play any of these games?
maybe not that obscure, but I never see threads for it. wonder if it's worth finishing. can't even remember why I stopped playing. I think the ammo system put me off maybe.
>>344001991
My mom and sister have played every single one. I played two of them, the ski resort castle one and the ranch one.
One of my favorite ps2 games
Anyone?
>>344002290
I remember this being brought up by someone regarding FFCC on gamecube and how Eden did it first.
>>343996698
Being good doesn't mean not being obscure.
>>344002290
Isn't that the one where you have all these lightsaber-esque weapons that level up if you kill enough dudes with them?
And where you have QTEs in cutscenes that don't kill you, but just damage you if you fail them?
I remember renting that game as a kid.
>>344001991
I played a few of them. The one that comes to mind was at some sort of Ski Snowy Place with a Wolf.
They're alright, I suppose. Never finished one of them, though.
>>344003179
MAGIC CLAW MAGIC CLAW MAGIC CLAW
>>344002985
You're right about energy weapons, but it didn't have QTEs, and you played with squad of 4 with different abilities, like mechanic which fixes broken stuff, hacker, big cyborg who was immune to fire, gas and stuff and bossman who was used to open specific doors and speak with important people. Also the game was full of puzzles, drug maniacs, cannibals and mutants.
>>344003474
Ooohh I was thinking of a completely different game. I think I remember now.
Was the first level some kind of sewers?
>>344003783
That OST was fucking radical.

Sort of. You had to access few parts of the first area trough god-knows-what derelict tunnels and moist pipes everywhere
>>344002165
That game was bitchin
>>344001991
I remember there was one where Nancy had to investigate a high school in Hollywood or something and
>that one part where the killer reveals herself and that she has an accomplice
>she talks about her evil plan to you from a lit control booth while you're in a dark room ( a movie set?)
>she turns all the lights off and her accomplice is coming after you with a knife in the dark
I had nightmares for a fucking week
>>344000639
I'm playing this right now. It's pretty good but I struggled at the beginning because I kept dying against the monsters outside the first city. It's definitely not easy unless you grind.
And yeah the artstyle is greatit's the main reason I picked it up
All girl party ftw
>>343995575
i found a cart of contact on ds and played through most of it in a day but the cart stopped working. i've seen it mentioned probably twice since release
